You cant help but feel for them at times like this . . Couldnt find the 'Lets all Laugh at Everton' Thread. Pipe down Liverpool and Man Utd, Everton have held the league more years than either of you | Nil Satis Nisi Optimum There has been an endless amount of taunting between Liverpool and Manchester United fans over recent weeks about the amount of league trophies each side has won. But neither can compete with Everton, yet. Technically, Everton have won the league trophy 9 times, although there is something else to consider. Everton won the league in 1914-15, before play was suspended and not resumed until 1919-20, meaning the Blues were champions for four years. Everton also won the league in 1939, but again, due to some minor scuffle across the English Channel, play was suspended until 1946-47, handing Everton the trophy to look after for a further six years. This brings Everton’s reign as champions of English football to 20 years, four years longer than United’s proud boast, and five longer than Liverpool’s, although we’re aware that Liverpool try and claim the trophies they won during the second world war as “titles”, but as these were the Northern League, then they can do one. So all your banners count for nothing Manchester, come back when it’s 21….
